This Is the. belief of an Indiana may or, nnd It Is getting to bo uncomforta ble for this specle3 of animal down at Hammond, where ho rules. There arc more than 300 marriageable women, young, middle aged, and of wears un announced, In tho manufacturing town. Thero are only 100 bachelors, and everyone of them has his troubles. But these 100 won't mnrry. Tho mayor down thero has his own opinion about bacholors. Tho mayor's name is Knotts Armanis P. Knotts. The bachelors say It ought to be Knocks. Everybody elso says he's a bully good fellow, and knows what ho Is talking about. Read theso epigrams from his pen ana know why he couldn't get the bnchelor vote ncnln If he wanted It: "Tho bachelor Is an agitator and a constant source of trouble. "Tho man who shuns marrlago Isn't half as valuable to a community as an old maid who never had a chanco to marry. "Run down a man with a grouch and you'll discover a bachelor. "Tho bacholor Is to tho human fam ily what the mulo la to the animal kingdom. "Tho mormon Is more of a patriot than tho man who won't evon take one wife '"I'd rather oeo a man with n family of seventeen children than a malo old maid.' Employers and Bachelors. Thcso nro tho ecnttmonts of Mayor Knotts. He's brought the marriage proposition to the front In his town, nnd if tho bachelors won't get married ho wants to know tho reason why Ho has called the employers Into con ference with him, nnd If n man Is not willing to buy bread nnd butter for two ho is llablo to And himself out ol a Job. Tho employers think somewhat ob jtho mayor thinks. Thoy dcclaro they uuvu iiuu ii-uauu iu uium mui vtuy uv causo, llko tho mayor, they traco all tho labor troubles which have shaken Hammond to the bachelor element. Tho question hns becomo a labot question. Mayor Knott Is reaching out for new Induotrles. Ho finds many manufacturers aro afraid of strikes, and ho thinks ho has found a cure, and that euro is to mako tho single mon doublo up. Ho has stirred up a pretty mess, but ho docen' mind that. Tho bacholor Is a disturber. That is tho argument of tho mayor. Ho be lleves disturbers are bad for a town, therefore bachelors aro bad, and when thoy mako up a big part of the dlrec tory as thoy do In Hammond things often como to n pretty pass. hls It tho mayor's Icglc and ho is borno out in his belief by tho employers who have mado Hammond all that It is. Cause of Unrest. Tho mayor sent tho first shot Into ranks of the army of unmarried men. Ho wroto to tho manufacturers In Hammond1, no stated that ho believed Industrial peace could bo secured only when tho workmon woro all married and had tho responsibility of a family upon them to keep them steadily at work. Tho bachelors heard of tho letter almost boforo the ink with which It was written waa dry. Thoy thought It an attempt to coerco them Into matrl mony. There oelng few unemployed IJ1UU lit UV BUUU.w, i.H u..v. w " mayor's hit at the bread and butter supply or almost every uncneior ana Immediately thero wont up n howl. Tho Bachelors' club, an organization, composed of a largo number of tho best-known ellglblcs In Hammond, mot forthwith to protest. Thoy did so and at onco sent to the mayor these resolutiens: "Whereas, Mayor Armanis P, Knotts of Hammond wishes tho manufactur ers of this city to dlecrlmlnato against unmarried mon In their employ In fav or of the man with a home; and, "Whereas. However willing we are at present to marry, wo cannot get wives as wo can new shoes or hats, for they ore pearls without price, that money cannot buy; ana "Whereas, We recognize that the unmarried man does his share in the upbuilding of the community, we look with disfavor upon the Idea that we ar to lose our Jobs because of the prostlge of tho benedict; therefore, be it "Resolved. That we petition the manufacturers to carefully consider Mayor Knott's proposition bofore thty take action upon It and dismiss us from their employ; and be It "Resolved, further. That wo implore the bachelors of Hammond to get a move on themselves and do all they can for the mavor. Judges, and Justices of tho peace In buying licenses and starting homos for themselves: and bolt "Resolved, furthor. That we ojk his honor to go back a few years and remember the time whon he waa child, less and wifeless and In no position (9 take upon hlmsolf the burden of making and keeping up a home." Men are Fastldlou. Tho mavor takes very little stoel: In what the bachelors say about being unable to flnl wives. There are three times aa many single women as there are single men in the town. The mayor thinks tho men are too foatldf Worry And Overworh Caused Nervous Prostration Com pletely Worn Out. Dr. Miles' Nervine Cured Mo. Dr. Miles' Nervine will cure nervous pros tration. It will brine sweet tlep and rest; it will relieve the mind ot the tendency to worry; It will make the nerves strong and the patient well. It has cured thousand. It will cure you. Try It to-day. "Some years ago I was stricken with nenr. ous prostration caused by overwork and worry. I was in such a weakened, exhausted, run down condition that I was unable to do my housework. I felt too weak and tired to even make calls on my neighbors. Fre quently when out driving I would become so exhausted that It seemed that I would die before I reached home. I was also troubled with sinking spells at night which left me-so weak that I thought I could not live until morning. I was In this deplorable condition when one day Dr. Miles' Nervine was brought to my notice. I had little faith In proprietary remedies but determined to give the Nervine a trial. After the second dose of the Restorative Nervine I was able to sit at the table and eat a meal, something I had been unable to do for many days. I have since taken a number of bottles of Nervine. I consider myself cured. I am doing my own work andi give Dr. Miles' Nervine credit for ray general good health. My object in writing this is to recommend your medicine but I cannot write as strongly as I feeLK Miss Addis B.Varduc, 405 E, Marion SL, Guthrie, Oklahoma. .

Iod. ous. lie also says tho man who will not marry Is a coward, who Is afraid to take tho responsibility ot trying to keep a family. Ho Is willing to do all that he can to help matters along. Ho has offered to perform marriage coromonles free of cost, which, of courso, Isn't vory pleasing to tho preachers and Justices, but thoy havo mndo no objection to tho move. In tho end the action of tho mayor promises to work havoc In tho ranks of tho unwed, for ho lins tho manufac turers with him. He snt In his office one day last week with threo letters In his hand. . "It's working all right " bo said, sop lously. as h unfolded tho lottero and rend them. Each was from tho head of a large manufacturing establish ment Each praised tho mayor for taking: his stand, and each said that the company from whenco It came would do all In Its power to enrry tho protect into operation. "Thoy seo the thing as I do," said Mayor Knotts. "Any Bcnslblo man will look at it In tho same way. I nut matrimony on nn economic basis, I am not looking nt It from the nontl' mental side. I don't go much on this Dnn Cupid and affinity business. A mnn should marry tho woman of his choice but nt any rate ho should be married. Now, you seo I'm married and I havo a daughter 18 years old. and I know whnt I'm talking about. Others snv I do not. but that will not prevent me from preaching marriage and keeping at tho nreachlng. "We can solvo tho labor question hero by doing away with tho employ ment of bachelors, Oo Into a factory here, and what do you seo7 a lot of floaters from Chicago, Andorson, In dlanapolls. and ovory othor plnco In the region. Thev como horo or gc somewhore else, for when u factory hero Is closed another factory that makes tho samo article has to Increase its output to supply the demand. If anything goes wrong, or If tho work men take a notion they wnnt a little moro higher wages, they go on a strike no matter what they may bo getting jThe are all single' men. You" will not find tho married residents of Ham mond clamoring to walk out, They want work, and tlioy wnnt It tho year round. Tho married rnan is tho best citizen, nnd, that, wherever you put him, and he is tho backbono ot a city, and especially an industrial city llko this Walk out Into the street and seo who is doing U10 hawllng, nnd you will find that every strlko agitator is a bachelor, who has cither soured on tho world or doesn't give a continent nl. "I don't want to farco thcso young fellows of Hammond to get married Rut It Is only right that tho married man should bo glvon tho preference by tho employer. Many manufactur ers In Hammond will hereafter tnko that vory course, and It will mean much for all concerned. Tho mnnu facturcr will not have a lot of disturb ers around him; Hnmmomnd will add to its permanent population of homo owners, and now Industries will then bo Bure to locnto horo. Thero will bo no danger of labor disturbances. "I am satisfied that tho solution ot the labor question lies along tho mat rlmonlnl route.' Thero 1b a club of young men nt Hammond known as tho Mcdulros, This club Is an outgrowth of tho nnch dors' club and is composed qf tho nil Ing faction of tho latter society. Its members aro ail closo friends of tho mayor, but his action has caused con sternntlon among tho young fellows nnd threatens to bring about trouble Tin mombors of the club nro nil em ployed at tho factories, mostly in tin portant positions. They seo thnt If tho mayor's suggestion Is carried out thoy will bo deprived of a means of earning a livelihood In Hammond. Tho moving spirit of this club Is Frank L. Susemlhl. He Is not n vorv old bachelor, but ho has views on mat rimony, nnd hero Is what ho snys: 11 is preposterous and unfair for Mayor Knotts to try and compel up o rush Into matrimony. I do not think ho carefully analyzes tho traits of human beings. I do not bellcvo thoro Is ono of tho mombers of tho club thnt Is opposed to getting married, and war. uoos not at tho samo tlmo expect to wed, but whnt would happen In Hammond If all tho bnchclors woro either compollcd to leave their posi tions or get married. Not mony could afford to lenvo their positions. "Now, It Is truo that thoro a great many moro women thnn men In this city. Somo aro vory deslrablo catches tvery bacholor In Hammond would break straight for tho best girl, nnd thnt would bring about a pretty stato of affairs, It would simply result In driving all tho young women out of tho cltv A fow of them might get mnrrled, but not many would caro to bo courted by a regiment. Why, thd mayor's Idea Is about as far from rea son as anything I over heard of. 1 "In two years two of tho Hammond bacholors havo beon married. Both, of them went elsowhoro to find their wives. Thoro aro no better thnn those hero, but tho action of thoso two bach olors simply shown that you cannot connno lovo to nny geographical llm Its. The Dachelor-Home Idea. "Tho mnyor says that a homo-owner is tho best citizen. I ngrco with him, and all tho members of tho Bachclo'si club havo told mo that thoy aro will ing to purchaso ground nnd orcct a hoiiso on it so that thoy may bo called property owners, but every man said ho was not going to bo forced to get mnrrled. It is all right If thoy want us to bo proporty owners In Ham mond, but matrimony doos not go, Thnt In tho decision of tho club, and It will stand, If nny mombor wants tc get married ho may do so, but tho oil nonalty will bo nsscsEed agalnBt l,.m Just tho samo. What that penalty Is only tho club members know, but j Is onough to keep a good many follows out of tho matrimonial net." Thero Is another well-known bnc' lor who voiced tho sentiments of the Bachelors' club, Ho Is Charlea D cor in nny and ho said: Stomacb Troubles cured by KODOL Under all curaWcondiliord Mr. D. Kaublo of Nevada, 0., waa cured by Kodol of atomaon trouble which had affected his heart. Mrs.W.W. Ly ler of Milliard, Pa., was cured of Chronlo Dyspepsia ty the us M Kodol. "BBBBL?

"If Mayor .notts la successful 11 forcing Hammond bachelors to marry tho slnglo men will soon find thero Is no plnco left for him In the United States. Ho will simply nnvo to ox port his bolonglngs to n South Sea Is land nnd thon follow after. If tho manufacturers hero try tho Knotts scheme It will probably be ndoptod by manufacturers everywhere I ballova ho Is right In IiIb argument that It will solvo tho labor question, but In Its re sults I seo great troublo for tho young and energetic men of tho country. It will almost bring about a revolution. Tho skilled workmen who Is not mnr rled will bo thrown out of work, Ho will run to the saloon nnd tho country will bo filled with tramps. Oh, I toll you most seriously that Mayor Knotts is vory, vory wrong. His prlnclplo Is right, but think of tho result." And so tho war between tho mnyor and tho bnchclors goes merrily on, Into what dlro straits It will load tho bacholors no ono qulto dares to pre dict, but It looks to tho pcoplo of Ham. mond ns if tho bachelor would havo to Bhoot or glvo up tho gun. m ii 1 The Excitement Not Over.
